Rumor has it, you can just pull the meter out like a giant plug while you do the work, and then some responsible homeowner could call the power company and say "I found this wire thing, like a seal, under my meter. my neighbor has one just like it but ON his meter. Should I be worried?"
Who knows? Maybe some vandal tore off the seal.

Just kidding. Do it the right way.

A, um, friend was doing some tractor work near their shop (separate meter) and accidently hit the meter with the bucket. Popped it right out :O He plugged it back in and replaced the ring and the seal. A couple years later the utility company 'upgraded' the meter, replacing the old and didn't notice. Whew!
